- A calm, empathetic approach and excellent communication skills
- Confidence in working with pupils who may display anxiety or behaviour that challenges
- A proactive, team-oriented attitude and willingness to follow consistent strategies
- Additional training (e.g. Thrive, Team Teach) is an advantage—but if you’re not yet trained, we can help!
🎓 What you’ll receive from Protocol Education:
- Weekly pay through PAYE – no umbrella deductions
- Free access to our online CPD Academy, including Thrive training
